negotiations phase and as Malta acceded to the European Union. In his address Mr
Gallimore thanked GRTU Leaders for all the support he found throughout his stay
in Malta from GRTU and expressed his satisfaction for the effective manner in
which GRTU has performed its function as a catalyst for Maltese small
enterprises’ interests in EU matters.
Mr Vincent Farrugia, Director
General GRTU thanked Mr Gallimore for all the co-operation he had extended to
GRTU and the sectors it represents and augured that once Mr Gallimore is free of
the EU Commission commitments that he will remain available for advise to
Maltese private entrepreneurs on issues related to the EU.

but one of an Information Centre on EU matters. Mr Ronald Gallimore is the last
EU representative of the Ambassadorial rank.
